If I were UTG and I hit any kind of a decent hand (like Ax), my first instinct would be to bet into the donk, expect him to raise, and see if that was enough to fold our Hero. If UTG reraises when it comes back to him, then you know the bet was for value and you’re probably in trouble.

I think I would just call the flop and see what UTG does. If he just calls there’s a decent chance you’re still good (you might be able to isolate the donk with a raise on the turn). If it comes around reraised and capped, I fold out. If it’s just one bet back to me, I’d call and release my hand on the turn if it’s unimproved.

Does that make any sense? I’m still on the new side.
